Description:This is a real good example of the 24 pounder solid shot which was real effective against whatever it hit yet was still small enough to be somewhat mobile for an army on the move. This shot was believed to have been found in the Shiloh area but it is not known for sure. It did come from out west somewhere. It does not appear to have been run through electrolysis but was hand cleaned. There is evidence of the mold seam all the way around being real strong on one side. It weighs right at 24 pounds.

Shot is cleaned and coated.
